While shopping at a flagship Hawaiian retail store, a taste panel member suddenly became intrigued by the idea of chips made of cassava after viewing the display case. Almost immediately, he left the store with a snack that would eventually become "blogworthy". Today's next food is Wai Lana Sea Salt & Vinegar Cassava Chips distributed by Wai Lana Productions, LLC in Sacramento, CA. Other varieties include Pizza, Barbeque, Lime Chili, Thai Curry & Lime, Swiss Cheese, Herb & Garlic, Natural, Sweet & Sour, and French Onion.What we liked: Comments from our taste panel included "I enjoy that these are light, taste air-puffed, and have 30% less fat than regular potato chips.", "Wow! There's a lot of flavor for a little chip!", "There's a savory aftertaste at the end which has a nice flavor.", "The salt & vinegar flavor is slightly tart but not overpowering", "These would be amazing with a kalua pulled pork sandwic, other lean meat, or for a tropical twist." and "I can't wait to try their other varieties."
